[New-bugs-announce] [issue18262] ZipInfo.external_attr are not documented

[anatoly techtonik]

New submission from anatoly techtonik:

zipfile doesn't restore file attributes when extracting. Documentation should at least contain example how to do this manually, because the ony way to do this - through ZipInfo.external_attr is too cryptic.
